On the FID site it shows games 3 and 4 openings as follows:

Game 3: 11-16, 24-19, 8-11.

Game 4: 11-16, 24-19, 16-20.

Was this what happened or is it a transcription error ?

The coverage of the current 3-move WCM is absolutely terrific, and great credit is due to all those providing it. As in 2011, it is clearly going to be very close, with a multitude of extended endgames. Realising that this is displaying my ineptitude, what is the easiest way of accessing a print-out of the 12 games played so far? Since 4 of them have been on the 9-13s, I'm very interested to compare what was played with what I gave in 21st Century Checkers. Both players deserve high praise for fighting throughout every single game: not 'perfect' checkers, but extremely absorbing!

I fully agree with Richard, the coverage is indeed terrific. Well done to everyone associated with the task. As to the players, the pressure must be extreme as there has been little rest thus far. Borghetti's visualisation is very accurate and he's on top of his game. He's certainly putting it up to Alex. They've taken it up where they left off two years ago.

John,

You forgot games 5 and 6 on the 12 games you provided Richard, and also you showed Game 7 twice.

For some reason the games after 18 will not download ( with Internet Explorer).
